Hopefully we can get all our key guys re-signed and not HAVE to use the tag. That's one of the reasons we are so far below the cap._________________2017 Draft Needs: Interior O-line, Pass Rushing DE, Linebacker, Kicker, Overall Team Speed.

Andre isn't really worth the tag number. If they used it on him, it would be an admission that they screwed up in not exercising his option last offseason. So they won't do that, instead they'll let him become a free agent and try to re-sign him, ala Joseph. Keeping Geathers was a mistake that is costing over 5 mil this year. We'll wish we had that money next offseason.

Its OK to say Andre Smith is not worth top 5 money, but a FA vet replacement will probably cost the same or more.

We're thinking defence with our top draft picks, so the only other options is to start Collins @RT.

Regarding Robert Geathers, he is a FA after this season, so we don't have a cap number hit at all for him after February '13........_________________" Democracy is a system where two idiots can out-vote a genius..........."

It will be a race to get either ASmith or MJ93 done before the tags are given. If one gets done, the other might get the tag.

I would rather lock up Smith. Both should be resigned though

If I had to replace one of them with a high draft pick I would go with a new DE. I LOVE me some MJ93 but i'm not IN LOVE with him. I like our line now too, zeitler and fat boy next to each other is pretty awesome.
